However, retaining students in STEM disciplines remains a challenge, particularly for underrepresented minorities (URM). To this end, the current study seeks to understand how a research experience and mentorship contribute to the socialization of students in STEM. Specifically, this study applies the Tripartite Integration Model of Social Influence (TIMSI) to assess how the UCSF Summer Student Research Program (SSRP) and its mentors influence students’ socialization into the scientific community. Additionally, this study examines differences in outcomes between URM and non-URM students. Pre- and post-program survey data (n = 187) were analyzed using paired-sample t-test, multiple regression, and MANOVA. Results indicated that STEM students experienced significant improvements in socialization within the scientific community following their participation in the SSRP. Additionally, mentorship during the program emerged as a strong predictor of participants’ socialization. Notably, the findings showed that the SSRP equally benefited both URM and non-URM students. These results underscore the vital role of research experiences and mentorship in fostering STEM students' integration into the scientific community. Programs like the SSRP not only help retain students in STEM fields but also promote diversity, both of which are essential for strengthening the future STEM workforce.
